This is a terrific post. The core message is that "technology change is about people." And Vicki Davis pulls that apart and comes up with seven spot-on observations (mostly my own wording):

Innovation is done by people (and not, I would add, processes, forms, reports or measurements)

Time is precious, especially for kids

The best way to produce innovation is to empower people

Spend money on investments, not expenses

Invest especially in relationships

Invest in yourself - your own learning, your own capabilities

Be the device

Sometimes it's tempting to say that if we could only tweak a process, change an organizational structure, or develop a new tool, that we could address all the issues we face. I'm learning that this mostly isn't true (it's a far harder lesson to learn in practice in your 50s than it is to learn in theory in your 30s, and I've done both).
